What could a mosquito teach us about less painful injections? Its mouthparts could inspire gentler needles.
We highlight five engineering ideas borrowed from nature: quieter trains and kingfishers, termite mounds and building cooling, whale flippers and wind turbine blade design, and shark skin-inspired surfaces that reduce bacterial attachment.

🤖 NEW: Engineers in #Singapore built #ALBATROSS, a roughly 1 kg #robot that falls from a #drone at about 150 m, spins its limbs to slow the descent from around 110 to 24 km/h, then converts into a #sailboat with a #fish-like rudder. Three actuators and three sensors let it navigate Singapore reservoirs autonomously for hours.
